Parallel projection

form of graphical projection where the projection lines are parallel to each other

In linear algebra and functional analysis, a projection is a linear transformation P from a vector space to itself such that P2 = P. Projections map the whole vector space to a subspace and leave the points in that subspace unchanged.[1]

The transformation P is the orthogonal projection onto the line m.
